Had a lot of fun chipping in at Graham Street Park with some composting. It's a lovely park of town by the canal. Nice to see some familiar faces as we worked as a close knit team to work away at the two small compost heaps. We had a little bit of a scare early on as we were threatened to be kicked out by a park keeper but we managed to negotiate a bit more time to finish the job. A proper workout with plenty of forking and shoveling to be had. Thanks Eslam for having us and I'm sure we'd happily return if there's more to do in the coming months.

8 GoodGymers dug a pond, planted wildflowers, and made a REAL DIFFERENCE in Highgate!

Tucked and nestled away — behind houses and flats — is a special green space that's being re-purposed by the community in North London!

The Makepeace Community Garden on the Holly Lodge Estate is fast becoming a nature-bound oasis, and our wonderful group of GoodGymers are making a steady and regular difference :)

This lovely lot — Cecilia, Charlie, DaMarcus, Emily, Harvey (celebrating good deed 1001! CONGRATULATIONS!), Leora, and Luna (on their first good deed — welcome!) — caught a good-deeding wind yesterday morning!

Together they:

❤️ Dug, lined, and filled a delightful new pond!

❤️ Cut away an old weed membrane and planted oodles of wildflower seeds!

❤️ Positioned and installed hedgehog highways!

❤️ Mowed the lawn!

❤️ Planted fresh flowers and plants!

Thank you, everyone! Here's to next time!

P.S. Thank you to Cecilia and Emily for the many wonderful photos ❤️

Solid effort turning compost at Sunnyside (more like Rainyside) Community Gardens. One bin turned to completion - the other barely scratched the surface, but failure isn't a word in Eslam's vocabulary, so we'll call it a win. All the more for next week, right?!

4 GoodGymers joined 3 Community Champions to make a Sunday afternoon difference in Gospel Oak!

Lismore Circus Community Woods is a special patch of nature and seasonal colour, and we arrived to oodles of early spring opulence yesterday afternoon!

This brilliant GoodGym group of DaMarcus, Ralf (on their first good deed – welcome!), and Steph joined local gardeners Chris, Robert, and Suza to form a crack team :)

Together we positioned and filled a new compost bin — swept and tidied aplenty — sawed and chopped and pruned umpteen overgrown branches — and carefully packed everything into compost bags for reusing!

Thank you, everyone!
